Hacking TPL converter script

[CalebW]

I'm tired of converting .tpls manually one by one so I decided to try to create a bash script(I use Linux not windows) that uses TPL.exe and would convert all .tpls to .png in the folder and vise versa. The script for tpl to png is:

#!/bin/sh
# converts .tpl images to .png

for i in *.tpl; do
if [ -e "$i" ]; then
file=`basename "$i" .tpl`
./TPL.exe "$i" "$file.png"
fi

done

and to convert png to tpl you just replace each file type with its counterpart (tpl changes to png and png changes to tpl) so the script would be:

#!/bin/sh
# converts .png images to .tpl

for i in *.png; do
if [ -e "$i" ]; then
file=`basename "$i" .png`
./TPL.exe "$i" "$file.tpl"
fi

done

for i in *.tpl; do
 if [ -e "$i" ]; then
 file=`basename "$i" .tpl`
 ./TPL.exe "$i" "$file.png"
 fi
done

First, you can write this code smaller:

for i in *.tpl; do
  [ -e "$i" ] && ./TPL.exe "$i" "${i%.tpl}.png"
done

and if using my szs tools the code becomes smaller again:

wimgt copy *.tpl %N.png
